Q. My vendor suggests that he can refill a cartridge 2 to 3 times and then probably go for a new or recycled cartridge. Is is true?
A : Any component in a OEM cartridge is rated for single use. Reusing the critical components would either mean that you would have mid cycle failure, or a faulty cleaning blade might lead to powder spillage in the printer leading to fuser unit damage. The opc drum might develop dots which might show on the printout, and subsequently you would change the cartridge mid way. Here you loose money on refilling and get poor prints with which you have to compromise. Recycled cartridges give same output as an OEM.
Q. My Printer Maintenance guy says that the use of such cartridges would damage the printer. Shouldn't I listen to him?
A : Many printer engineers presume that the cartridge is a refilled cartridge. The concept of recycling is new and it is catching up fast, both with the support industry as well as the end users. Their previous experiences with a refilled cartridge might have been really poor, as they would have had to clean a lot of components due to the powder spillage from a refilled cartridge. The awareness is increasing and a lot of techniciansinfact are now in favour of such Recycled cartridges instead of refilled cartridges or for that matter the OEMs. There are substantial savings and no spillages. Your cost of the printer is recovered within 5 to 10 purchases of recycled cartridges vis a vis OEM.
